 NB>> Hope you are feeling much better now...?
 JP> Much better, this was short lived, I took a anti-flu shot again in
 JP> December and it might be due to it. 

I heard that there was a version of the flu going around that wasn't
covered in this year's shots... but if it had been covered in a previous
year, and you've been getting the shots right along, you'd still have a
little immunity to it and at worst might only get a mild case...

 NB>> Yup, I'm noticing longer days, too... that is indeed nice.  I'm getting
 NB>> a lot less enthusiastic about the continued gifts of white stuff, fluffy
 NB>> or not, though...

 JP> You will not deny that it is gorgeous out. We often go to the summer
 JP> place in Kamouraska and it is WHITE, not brown as in the city. Do you
 JP> ever go to your upper NY place in the snow ? 

No, I'll agree that the snow is pretty, and when the sun shines on it,
it can be gorgeous, too...  Just don't much like the continued cleaning
off the car, and the stuff going to ice where I have to walk...  We've
been up to our camp a few times when there's been snow, but, as it's a
winding downhill dirt road in (and a winding UPhill dirt road when we
try to leave) it's a little treacherous driving, so we haven't done it
very often.  That too, though, is very pretty with the snow....

 JP>  I had a look at Juxtaposition day before yesterday and you and I were
 JP> really the only users on "Who called", beside a few entries from
 JP> Steve. I do not see many tear lines from Juxta on your replies, you
 JP> are a lurker there ? As I ? 

It's one of my backups... :)   I generally logon daily, grab a packet,
check (as you do) to see who's been on...  When I see your name again on
the list, I say "Hi, Jean"...!  I've seen some oldtimers (judging from
the number of calls) poke their heads in now and then, but mostly the
others do seem to be not really users.

 JP> 	Hee ! ZOC and BW are still running fine, I will try them on
 JP> Windows-7, just for kicks. I never had problems with ZOC, BW gave me
 JP> some arguments with screen size. I changed screen line count and font
 JP> size to overcome them. 

And it worked...  hopefully it will with Win-7 too...  :)
